Mack's Snore Blockers Soft Foam Earplugs 12 pair

I have used NRR 29dB rated Flents ear plugs that I used to get from the US Earplug Factory, for years. I have tried other varieties over the years, but either comfort or effectiveness was an issue. I decided to try these as I they looked good and the reviews were fairly favourable. They are brilliant and at NRR 32dB, there is a noticeable increase in the noise reduction. They are lovely and soft and make an effective seal too. However, I would suggest that customers consider ear canal size - I am medium and they can be a little uncomfortable if inserted to recommended depth. I have reduced the depth without loss of seal and get little ear discomfort. Small canals should look for the female sized models. Also, the Mack's NRR 32dB earplugs marketed with different names are the same except for packaging and plug colours. I bought different packs at largely varied prices with the same package content from different sellers!!

They block out everything if inserted properly and they're comfortable. I purchased them because we have a new baby in the house and he SCREAMS the house down every night (not my kid). With these ear plugs on, I cannot even hear him scream at all!

I've tried three different types of Mack's ear plugs and found these suit me best. I found that the Dreamgirl (pink) type did not fit tight enough to seal out sound. The Ultra Soft (light brown) ear plugs were a tight fit and while they kept sound out the best they were a little uncomfortable. Overall, these Snore Blockers are the most comfortable for me and I find them effective. Performance is affected by how far the plug is inserted into ear and it can take time to master the technique of achieving the best fit. All ear plugs will reduce noise provided they are inserted correctly. I find these Snore Blockers are sufficient to reduce the noise from my snoring wife and allow me to get a good night's sleep.

I like the noise reduction however found these to be a little uncomfortable, possibly due to size. (Maybe I have small ear canals). Quality is good though as it is with all Macks earplugs.

These earplugs are far too long to fit into ears and have no impact on the sound that can be heard. Due to being too long and wide they are very uncomfortable and cannot be used.

These really do block out snoring. I used them in hostels and on campsites so not directly next to a snoring partner but they work well. Can take a bit of getting in, but I think that's the nature of foam earplugs

For a product that calls itself a 'snore blocker' then I'm afraid that it doesn't do a very good job. They do reduce the volume but I can hear the snoring and vibration that comes with it. There are better products out there that actually eliminate all sounds, such as Laser Ear Plugs.

These are definitely the best ones I've tried for sleeping next to a warthog with sinus problems. They're that bit smaller, so fit snugly inside the ear canal. Others have stuck out and made the ear sore. More squidgy, so I can mould it to the size I want. And more importantly, I can't hear him as he snorts and whistles, which he denies ofcourse.
